The National Guard, the oldest component of the Armed Forces of the United States and one of the nation's longest enduring institutions, [color:"red"]celebrated its 366th birthday[/color] in 2002. The National Guard traces its history back to the earliest English colonies in North America. Responsible for their own defense, the colonists drew on English military tradition and organized their able-bodied male citizens into militias.

Today's National Guard continues its historic dual mission, [color:"red"]providing the states with units trained and equipped to protect life and property[/color], while providing the nation with units ready to defend the United States and its interests around the world.
